This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

Yes, if the mistake is repeated then I suppose this is the most parsimonious
answer. Would have been nice (for me anyway) if there was more to it. For some
reason Wolfe is uncharacteristically heavy handed in his demonstration that Silk 
and Horn have been merged. This could just be a part of that.
